Ephraim joined the “Rutherford Rifles” at age 19 upon its organization at the beginning of the Civil War. He was six feet tall with a fair complexion, blond hair and hazel eyes. He fought with the company in western Virginia, Shiloh, and Perryville. He was wounded during the latter battle but was fit for duty by the time the army was engaged at Murfreesboro. He was wounded again on December 27, 1862 at Lavergne, while the Union army was marching on Murfreesboro. He was later captured by the Yankees while recovering in Confederate Hospital #1 after the Confederate army retreated from Murfreesboro following the battle there. He spent some time in prison at Louisville, Kentucky before being exchanged in 1863. He joined Captain Lytle’s Company D, 11th Tennessee Cavalry Regiment, CSA, in 1864 and remained in that company until its surrender at Citronelle, Alabama in May, 1865. After the war he married and went into the dry good business with his father-in-law. He later became an insurance agent. Ephraim died in Murfreesboro on September 5, 1899 and is buried in Evergreen Cemetery. This information was taken from the book, “Rutherford Rifles” by Barry Lamb.
